Sudoeste Malbec 2010, a typical Rio Negro Valley great value



Sudoeste Malbec 2010, By Bodega Sudoeste, USD 15



A brand new release from Rio Negro (Fernandez Oro City, Alto Valle) expressing quite clear the core structure of a North Patagonian. Deep ruby with shades of violet. Beautiful aromas of red sour and sweet cherries. Red Plum ripe and slightly acid too. Wide palate as proper of northpatagonia´s malbec. Only a delicate oak entangled. I love this style terroir based Malbec. An 89 points malbec which expresses both variety and Patagonia quite straight. A strongly pronounced Malbec far from the delicatessen and finesse of mendoza´s.
